I even see old Romney stickers. Never anything that says Hillary.

And if I bring up the election - first thing anyone says is usually "Not Hillary" "I do not like Hillary", and variations on that theme.
The young who are new to the process - not only do they know the issues, and experience the effects first hand - they will not vote for Hillary. Yeah, her supporters showed up at the primaries, and whether or not there was fucking around with the votes - those supporters are not enough for the GE.
